Introduction and Background

The Oral Health Florida (OHF) coalition is comprised of a broad-based group of agencies, institutions, organizations, communities, stakeholders, policymakers, leaders and other individuals whose mission is to promote and advocate for optimal oral health and well-being of all persons in Florida. Its mission is accomplished through implementation of Florida’s Roadmap for Oral Health. Originating within the Florida Department of Health, the coalition is now independent of the agency. As part of its evolution, OHF is committed to evaluating its efforts and how stakeholders perceive its work. Thus, in September 2016, OHF engaged Deborah Foote of Cypress Tree Consulting, LLC (CTC) to explore if the organization is perceived to be on the right path, to determine overall perceptions and satisfaction with the coalition, and to identify any new opportunities to improve its ability to meet its mission.Results of the data collected through these surveys are included in the following report, as are the implications of these findings to OHF as it seeks to evolve and refine its efforts in its work to promote and advocate for optimal oral health and well-being of all persons in Florida.
